Xc 29er, the roads in this city make a road bike a poor choice. $400 cad from costco, fairly lightish (28lbs). Gonna replace the fork for this season and maybe the breaks for hydraulics as these 2 components are showing the most wear.

Youre in luck the headlights are still on sale. The Linus light is just a rebranded Rindow light but much cheaper.
You might need this to mount it more permanently:

This taillight had to be drilled to mount on my lugged seat clamp but will fit on normal hex bikes, Id go with the Linus taillight if youre putting it on a hex bike because its usb rechargeable and brighter than the Soma

Look at her arms/wrists/ankles, her cheeks don't really look that chubby either from what little we can see.
I know its hard for you to believe but I live in the south so we've got a bunch of big ol cornfed girls that look a lot worse than this, but sometimes you get a gem like this where yeah on paper shes probably like 220/230, but she wears it all exactly where she needs to.
Honestly there are at least 4 women that come into my produce department that have asses so big you can balance multiple drinking glasses on top like pic related, pardon my super rusty drawing skills.
The human body can get pretty gnarly, but if girls shaped like my picture would drop like 200lbs they'd probably end up like the girl we're arguing about with stupid thicc proportions.
Maybe go on people of walmart, you'd probably find some fatties like I see where you sort of what to know what they looked like in high school before they could've put on that weight, because the proportions are just cartoonish
